Execution Times
Examples of flows having selective branches and recombination
1. Operation of selective branch
• When two or more flows are provided and
either one is selected and executed, it is
called a selective branch.
• In the example shown on the right, X000,
X010 and X020 should not turn ON at the
same time.
• For example, when X000 turns ON while
S20 is ON, the ON status is transferred to
S21; S20 turns OFF, and S21 turns ON.
Accordingly, even if X010 or X020 turns
ON after that, S31 and S41 do not turn ON.
• The recombination state relay S50 is
driven by either S22, S32 or S42.
2. Example of selecting and carrying large and small balls
The figure below shows a mechanism which selects and carries large and small balls using conveyors.
The upper left position is regarded as the origin, and the mechanism performs in the order “moving down → suction →
moving up → moving rightward → moving down → release → moving up → moving leftward”.
When the arm moves down and the electromagnet pushes a large ball, the lower limit switch LS2 turns OFF. When the
electromagnet pushes a small ball, LS2 turns ON.
